The number of giant cargo ships headed to Australian ports will increase significantly in the next two years.
Capesize ships are the largest bulk carriers of commodities like iron ore and coal; they are so big they can only be loaded at the deepest ports, like Dampier or the proposed port at Oakajee.
Many of the ships were ordered before the global financial crisis when there was a shortage of ships, and freight rates soared to over $200,000 a day.
When the GFC hit, rates plummeted to as low as $6000 a day, but Lou Russell, CEO of peak industry body Shipping Australia, says he's not expecting rates to bottom out like that again.
"Probably a reasonable rate is between the $25,000 to $30,000, it's a low rate for this size ship which is at least carrying 120,000 tonnes of cargo or greater"Fri, 29 Apr 2011 16:53:00 +1000\xmlcontent\201104\3203954.xmlABC Goldfields-EsperanceesperancewheatbeltBusiness, Economics and Finance:All:AllBusiness, Economics and Finance:Economic Trends:AllBusiness, Economics and Finance:Industry:AllBusiness, Economics and Finance:Industry:MiningBusiness, Economics and Finance:International Aid and Trade:AllRural:All:AllRural:Mining:AllBusiness, Economics and Finance:Multinationals:AllBusiness, Economics and Finance:Industry:CoalBusiness, Economics and Finance:Industry:Iron OreBusiness, Economics and Finance:Industry:Sea TransportAustralia:WA:Esperance 6450Australia:WA:Geraldton 6530
